Hi Khiara and Adam. It's Carolyn and Rick here, from Snow Gum - a Garcia Exploration 45. The boat has 4.5 tonne of internal ballast, in the stub keel and the bottom of the hull. Putting the anchor locker at the base of the mast stops the bow from pitching with a pendulum motion. And the long centreboard fights leeway while close hauling and close reaching. It works! :-)

Hello, I am a retired grandfather that just found your video. I live in the mid west area in the United States of America. I am alone now and get a lot of enjoyment watching videos like yours. I have been around boats most all my adult life. But they have been power not sail. I envy you both for enjoying your young life. I will 75years old this year. If I were younger I might try what you are doing. I wish you the best of luck. And please be safe.

Nice video, thanks. As for the Garcia Exploration, I'm currently looking at them for myself and can let you know, it's actually a dagger board so the weight/ballest is in the hull, not the keel. This is not only safer, especially downwind with following waves, but let's you anchor in more shallow spots without affecting your ballets and center of gravity. The idea behind the centralised anchor chain locker is to keep as many larger weights towards the center of the boat instead of the bow which provides a more comfortable passage. All the lines are brought back to the cockpit so the 52 version can easily be handled by just the two of you. All we need now is those 10 million ;-)

Please don’t get too behind the current date. Watching other channels who post content that you realise is many months behind, sometime much more, is frustrating. Love the Q&As for times like now. Agree with posting date for any content that’s more than a month old. Some content will be ageless like provisioning and using the pressure cooker. Maybe create and save some of those for when you’re wanting/needing time out. Love that you shared your long term plans, thank you. Fair winds, Elaine.

I see the benefit of a backlog, but I do like how your channel feels more like a vlog than a tv show. I think it's great that you decided to use Q&A videos to fill in a stretch of crappy weather. Waiting out the weather is part of your sailing experience, a part that might be tempting to edit out because it's not glamorous. In other words, stay spontaneous! I'd totally watch an episode about what boat you'd buy with 10 million bucks! Actually what would be even better, if you had 10 million to have a custom expedition boat designed and built to your specs, what criteria would you prioritize? Take care!

If you guys do move to a 2-3 month content backlog, can I humbly suggest putting the dates or month or whatnot when the video was shot in the video description somewhere? The fine people over at Sailing Soulianis started doing this a few months back and it really helped with getting a sense of when things had actually occurred.

It always seems strange watching a yacht arrive at a destination that appears to have no covid processes. Then realise that even though the video was posted recently the footage is quite old and there was no covid at that time. So having a date in the description would be good so the viewers could put the events shown in context with world events at that time.

While you are sort of trapped it would be good to have some content about what there is to do apart from the obvious one. What things help you pass the time? Do you have wireless internet from the shore? Is it reading books, playing games, planning, building, socialising with other boats. How much of an average day is maintenance of the boat? How about supplies, food, water, snacks? If you don't have the internet what methods do you use to keep up to date with events? What things are available to boats on anchor? Are there any enterprising locals coming around each day selling supplies. Is there more or less organised activities amongst the boating community now that covid is here? What I am trying to say is that every video doesn't have to documenting a major project, disaster or achievement. It would be good to see how the quiet times are spent. Everyone is dealing with restrictions on their normal activities, it would be interesting to learn how this is done on a boat. Thanks.

REAL-TIME VS. CONTENT BUFFER (months in the bank) 1. Love watching your adventures and especially following along as you tackle projects and solve unforeseen challenges. 2. I enjoy your style and part of the journey is the thread of emotion and moods that swing through any person's life. It is so very generous of you to share your adventures with strangers (let's be honest). 3. Suggestion: creating a buffer. Maybe think of a series of topics you can thread between journal episodes, and bank them? I looked through the comments and didn't see anyone mention this, but other channels do this sort of "aside business." Examples: collections of great dives grouped by topic (country, reefs, beaches, tropical, cold water, mammals, sea life categories, etc.); cooking at sea; provisioning in the tropics vs. Scandinavia vs. Mediterranean vs. Australia vs. S. Pacific. I guess my point is, maybe you could turn some of what you might think of as B-roll into edited, coherent, curated content. Sorry, all this just jumped out at me while you were speaking about your hiatus, which is easily excused. Don't beat yourselves up over it.

For the sake of your privacy and safety I could see y'all being a month or two behind that way someone wants to come looking for you if they won't know where you're at for sure. I know there's a few people out there that think they're your number one fan and they just want to see you desperately but they don't think about asking first... I know that's why some channels put their videos 3 to 6 months behind which I think is a little bit too much but it's their channel they can do what they want... There's one thing I do not like about those channels and that's when they ask people for suggestions and the videos are 3 to 6 months behind why would we make suggestions because whatever they did is already done.... Your videos are very enjoyable but you shouldn't be stressing over them make them as you want to it's your channel and may you kids be blessed in Jesus name... BBE 🤗🤗

When I ran tv stations, the news and current affairs shows always had to balance content and airtimes. The solution was and is to have a collection of standby stories for slow news days (see “Drop the Dead Donkey” tv show, google the title). You could do the same. Make a list of topics which could be slotted into an episode and produced easily. Or create an ongoing series which can be part of the larger episode: for instance there’s a wealth of material on food, food storage (containers for cereal?), breakfasts on a passage, etc. on racing boats we always have all meals cooked and prepared before starting, nobody peels carrots on a racing yacht. Do you prep meals before an ocean crossing? What do you avoid eating in rough seas? Still more material on toilets, anchoring, good and bad charts, yukky jobs, safety at sea and on anchor, how to plan an arrival (quarantine, customs, anchor or mooring or marina). I think you need to be no more than a week or two off real-time. If something happens on a Sunday, don’t bust a boiler to edit it for Monday, either leave it out or shoot a quick piece saying ‘next time...’ and promo at the end. KUTGW (keep up...)

The Garcia Explorations are a 45 and a 52.Also believe they are building a 63 as well.As far as I know, the chain weight is not in the ballast equation,it is just moved to the centre of the boat to minimize weight forward,for less digging into waves.

The Garcias (whatever size) are quite certainly a very good choice, well thought out and built of aluminium being IMHO the best boat building material. You may have a look at Pete Goss' video on his Garcia 45. As for your planning you mustn't leave out the Baltic Sea. Good sailing conditions and weather (well, Northern Europe but mostly fine) between May and October and a thousand years of history. Cities like Copenhagen, Stockholm and St.Petersburg are no doubt among the most beautiful cities in the world - a must!

The editing process is a monumental task for most KZbinrs and I've heard that some 'job that out' through online services like that of Fiverr. I hear that there is a learning curve as you and your editor(s) feel each other out and they become more and more able to help you produce videos that have the feel you're aiming for. And, you're always free to alter, add, subtract or modify as needed. How nice it could be…

Garcia are great. I have an older one and have no other experience. I think you are misunderstanding the ballast /chain locker situation. The chain locker midships is to remove a bit of weight from the bow. My boat for example has six and a half tons of ballast in the bilges. Bricks of iron, encased in resin and packed in tar. Then sealed in behind a welded ‘floor’. The center board is a hydro dynamic device only. By the way I really enjoy your videos.

Just a suggestion. If you are thinking about going north consider doing a tour of the Great Lakes through the St Lawrence. You would start west in mid Spring, or head West right after Spring thaw, and you would have until the late Autumn to make the circuit. Just follow either the Canadian or US coast going in West and the opposite coast going East back out the St Lawrence. It is the Least traveled waters by KZbin cruisers so you would be breaking new ground video wise. :)

Whenever you release a video, unless it's just general Q&A or a repair, say where you are (and not just "We're anchored off Black Rock, near the reef." My fellow sea kayakers are notorious for doing this - half the time you never figure out if their just down the block or in the high arctic.) And give a, date or at least the month. "Wow the Exumas in that video are beautiful, It says September on the KZbin tag, so let's go next year in September!" (and maybe also experience a hurricane up close.) Of course you don't want to say "We're recording this in Berth 42 Quai C at Ft Lauderdale on Feb 28" ...stalkers and weirdos come on down! (It's better to meet your fans by chance, "Oh, oh! You're the KZbin sailors! I love your channel, You're my favorites! I'm one of your Patreons! It's so great to finally meet you Riley and Kika! And look it's your catamaran Delos! I guess you're just over here visiting this old boat...." When you're canning I'm assuming you'll be using Ball Jars or some other glass jars. Get a cheap 1/4" yoga mat on Amazon and make sleeves for the jars so each jar is padded to keep from crashing together. You might be able to just cut the right diameter and then butt glue them. And with Ball Jars, the rubber seals get stiff over time so canning round three with the same jars, get new rubber gaskets. The cheap 1/4" yoga mats are very handy, they make great padding, a little cushioning, a lot of insulation. The 1/2" is super cushy, great for seat pads and standing long periods on. I buy them and cut them up.

One question would be: Which places would you avoid? I think most people avoid Africa? Do you guys have a complete map of your journey? I know you mentioned a few boats, but what about a Catamaran? They seem easier to sail and faster when needed. Have you linked up with anyone in order to get across a dangerous area or ocean that you weren't so keen on? You guys are freaking amazing, no massive income, on a budget. Many Sailing X and Y have floating houses with all amenities and luxuries.

Far out! What a great Plan A. Love your spirit. Love the route. And yes, South Korea could be on the Pacific circumnavigation post Atlantic circumnavigation.

Garcia great choice. Boreal Yachts down the same alley. The new Viator 42 DS takes out a bit of the expedition extremes, a bit smaller and radically "simple, sustainable, hybrid" optimized. Now if you wanna up it a bit: KM Yachtbuilder's Bestevaer. Usually full custom. And some extraordinary boat's: Tranquilo (NW-Passage, Antartica, South Georgia, Patagonia, Wintering on the NW-Passage), Morning Haze (NW-Passage), Bestevaer II (Loads of high-latitude and Ice-Sailing), Novara (Circumnavigated the Americas), Bestevaer sailor's all go nuts .... even owner's of the series version Bestervaer Pure 45ST seem to aim for ice. KM although builds Skip Novak's new Pelagic. And on paper, there is a 53 foot "family cruiser" version of the Pelagic. Yeah, an episode on extreme-cruiser-yachts would be fun. On the other hand: Matt Rutherford did the circumnavigation of the America's in dang 15K Albin Vega, and the exploits done with Contessa 32s are legend.

I love the Garcia concept - though they claim to hav ether ballast where it belongs and a centerboard instead of a swinging keel. I love the idea of you guys doing an episode on your boat wishlist

Love you guys and appreciate the effort that you are putting into your videos to keep them current. With some of the other channels, I find it rather awkward that they are several months out of date, especially with the current state of the world. Keep up the great work on your videos.

Thanks for the video. Appreciate that it's impossible to plan in the current environment. Loved your tentative plan and was excited to hear that it included Canada. The east coast has some fantastic cruising. I'll cool the Guinness.

For the dream boat review episode you should look at the Neel 51 trimaran. From everything I have read and seen on KZbin they have the best of both worlds. The have some of the comforts of a cat and the sailing performance of a monohull but can be faster than either too. I also asked John Kretschmer about them, but he had only seen them and not sailed one.

Following up on the “if you could chose any boat, what would you chose?” question, I’d love to see a video of your top choices (used or new) per price bracket - say 0-100K, 100-250K, 250-500K, etc and why you’d choose that one (features, upgrades, whatever!).

"Don't pay the ransom , They've escaped." Welcome back Khiara and Adam. Your Nana and I enjoyed you 2 latest episodes and pleased that you are both happy and well. There were rumours that you had been incarcerated for nefarious activities, but we didn't believe them. Just joking, you should be aware of my drool sense of humour by now. We both wish you well and keep sailing, be happy and enjoy. Love Nana and Granddad

We almost bought a Taswell 49. Gorgeous. However the Tv screen was melted. So we realized the batteries leaked and the most ate the tv. Plus probably all the electrical wires. Engine mounts etc. u can tell they threw water on nav station at one point. The dishonesty. I tell ya. Gorgeous boat. Now we have a Nantucket Island 38 on contract.

In support of Adam L, please keep some sort of indexing (Episode number, date, etc) to allow people to stay in synch. I am trying to catch up with another very popular channel and it is a nightmare as there is no index. It also doesn’t help when they throw in a live update which has them at ‘B’ when the normal run of episodes has them 700 miles away at ‘A’
